Editor's Note: See now 16 P.S. § 6156-B.
The budgetary reserve account created by this part shall be
maintained by the Borough, and the funds therein shall be retained
by the Borough until such time as the Borough shall, by resolution,
direct their expenditure, whether total or partial, for payment of
unanticipated fiscal emergencies, and said payments made pursuant

the utilization of disbursements.
An unanticipated fiscal emergency shall include, but not be
limited to, all appropriate costs related to adverse snowstorms or
weather conditions specifically included in those emergencies as declared
by the Governor or the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, the County Commissioners
for Allegheny County or the Mayor and Council of the Borough of Sharpsburg,
such as excess purchases of materials or equipment, or rental thereof,
overtime pay related thereto and other necessary and proper costs
incurred as a result of such unanticipated fiscal emergencies. Unanticipated
fiscal emergencies shall also include the cost of repairing and repaving
Borough roads, water and sewer lines which may be damaged as a result
of severe weather conditions, and the cost of any other unanticipated
fiscal emergency as deemed appropriate by the Mayor and Council.
